“We are actively targeting those who undertake this type of criminality and we will continue to work with our partners in the local government and justice sectors to eliminate this behaviour.”

The News revealed in November how thousands of pounds’ worth of damage had been caused to parked cars on nine different streets in the north of the Capital. Around 25 car windows were smashed in the attack.

Chief Insp Jones added: “We cannot tackle these incidents without the support of the local community.

“I would ask anyone with information regarding antisocial behaviour in their area to get in touch with us.

“Information can be shared anonymously and will be handled in the strictest confidence.”

Those wishing to report antisocial behaviour or motorbike-related crime can contact Police Scotland on 101 or make an anonymous report through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
